Partridge Family’s Danny Bonaduce to host Seattle radio show

Danny Bonaduce, best known for playing wisecracking Danny on the 1970s TV show, will host a morning show on 102.5 KZOK beginning Monday, Nov. 14. The show will air from weekdays from 5:45 am to 9 am, according to station executives.

Bonaduce comes from 94 WYSP in Philadelphia, but he’s also known as a professional wrestler and reality TV host for VH1.

“Seattle is the most beautiful city I have ever seen,” Bonaduce. “The first time I visited, I thought someone put a major metropolitan city in the middle of Yosemite National Park. I can’t believe I get to live and work here.”

He added: “I met my wife at Starbuck’s and can’t wait to visit the very first store. It’s like the holy grail.”

Controversy has followed Bonaduce since his “Partridge Family” days, including several drug arrests. He was also arrested in 1991 for allegedly beating and robbing a transvestite prostitute, an altercation that cost him his job at KKFR-FM in Phoenix.
